How to measure your Ford F-150’s bolt pattern
If you ever find yourself in a pinch and needing to measure the bolt pattern of—well—pretty much any vehicle, we promise the process is quite easy.
All you’ll need is a measuring tape or a 12-inch ruler. Select any bolt and measure from the outer edge of the lug hole to the center of the opposite bolt. Because the F-150 has six lug nuts, each nut has a clear bolt on the opposite side of the circle, so taking this measurement should be quite simple.
That measurement is your diameter. Put that together with the number of bolts, and you’ve got your bolt pattern!
